Ok so I cant open my Itunes due to Windows Error 2 and the message says to uninstall and re-install Itunes but I'm pretty sure that would wipe the library right? Is there any way to fix the problem and keep my library?

Hi neffn!
I have an article for you that can help you go through that process of uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes. If you have Windows 7, you will want to see this article:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
and if you are using Windows XP, you will want to reference this article:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
Note that, as it says in those articles:
iTunes Store purchases or songs imported from CDs are saved in your My Music folder by default and are not deleted by removing iTunes. While it is highly unlikely that you will lose any contents of your iTunes Library when following these steps, it is always a good idea to ensure that your iTunes library is backed up. If you're unsure how to backup, see iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive.
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

Can't delete a file displayed in ListView ("File in use") even after removing it from window.

I have a ListView displaying a collection of icons. The user can then select different icons (checkboxes) to do things like Copy or Delete.
Problem is, when I try to delete the actual file from the disk, I get an error telling me the file is "in use" ("vshost.exe", the VS runtime during testing).
I thought maybe it was because it still appeared in the window and was still in the ImageList, but even after removing it from both locations, I still get the error. My code:
Dim intCnt As Integer = 0
Do
ImageList2.Images.RemoveAt(intIconsChecked(intCnt)) ' Remove from collection.
lsvCollection.Items.RemoveAt(intIconsChecked(intCnt)) ' Remove from ListView window.
FileIO.FileSystem.DeleteFile(strIconPath & "\Icon" & Format(intCnt + 1, "00") & ".rsc") ' "+1" b/c Icons start with "01".
FileIO.FileSystem.DeleteFile(strIconPath & "\Icon" & Format(intCnt + 1, "00") & ".png") ' "In use" Error here.
".rsc" deletes just fine, so I know I'm deleting the correct file. Why does VS still think the file is still "in use"?
Thx

Mugsy,
Consider this as food for thought, even if you don't use it.
If you set it up right then you can control how it works. A reference is a reference and any left behind will cause you grief down the road when you try to delete things.
As an example, a simple class follows. It does *not* implement IDispose, although it does have a private shared Dispose method in it:
Public Class MyImages
Private _bmp As Bitmap
Private _name As String
Private _sourceFilePath As String
Private Sub New(ByVal bmp As Bitmap, _
ByVal name As String, _
ByVal filePath As String)
_bmp = bmp
_sourceFilePath = filePath.Trim
_name = name.Trim
End Sub
Public ReadOnly Property Bmp As Bitmap
Get
Return _bmp
End Get
End Property
Public ReadOnly Property Name As String
Get
Return _name
End Get
End Property
Public ReadOnly Property SourceFilePath As String
Get
Return _sourceFilePath
End Get
End Property
Public Shared Sub AddNew(ByRef miList As List(Of MyImages), _
ByVal imageFilePath As String)
Try
If miList Is Nothing Then
Throw New ArgumentNullException("The collection of MyImages cannot be null.")
ElseIf String.IsNullOrEmpty(imageFilePath) OrElse imageFilePath.Trim = "" Then
Throw New ArgumentException("The file path of the image cannot be null or empty.")
ElseIf Not My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists(imageFilePath) Then
Throw New IO.FileNotFoundException("The file path of the image could not be located.")
Else
' Should do validation here that the file
' is actually an image but I'll not do this
' here...
Dim thisBMP As Bitmap = New Bitmap(imageFilePath)
miList.Add(New MyImages(thisBMP, GetFileNameWithoutExtension(imageFilePath), imageFilePath))
End If
Catch ex As Exception
Throw
End Try
End Sub
Public Shared Sub AddNew(ByRef miList As List(Of MyImages), _
ByVal imageFilePath As String, _
ByVal imageName As String)
Try
If miList Is Nothing Then
Throw New ArgumentNullException("The collection of MyImages cannot be null.")
ElseIf String.IsNullOrEmpty(imageFilePath) OrElse imageFilePath.Trim = "" Then
Throw New ArgumentException("The file path of the image cannot be null or empty.")
ElseIf Not My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists(imageFilePath) Then
Throw New IO.FileNotFoundException("The file path of the image could not be located.")
ElseIf String.IsNullOrEmpty(imageName) OrElse imageName.Trim = "" Then
Throw New ArgumentException("The name of this image cannot be null or empty.")
Else
' Should do validation here that the file
' is actually an image but I'll not do this
' here...
Dim thisBMP As Bitmap = New Bitmap(imageFilePath)
miList.Add(New MyImages(thisBMP, imageName, imageFilePath))
End If
Catch ex As Exception
Throw
End Try
End Sub
Public Shared Sub Remove(ByRef miList As List(Of MyImages), _
ByVal imageFilePath As String, _
Optional ByVal removeFilePathAlso As Boolean = False)
Try
If miList Is Nothing Then
Throw New ArgumentNullException("The collection of MyImages cannot be null.")
ElseIf String.IsNullOrEmpty(imageFilePath) OrElse imageFilePath.Trim = "" Then
Throw New ArgumentException("The file path of the image cannot be null or empty.")
ElseIf Not My.Computer.FileSystem.FileExists(imageFilePath) Then
Throw New IO.FileNotFoundException("The file path of the image could not be located.")
Else
Dim findInstance As System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable(Of MyImages) = _
From mi As MyImages In miList _
Where mi.SourceFilePath = imageFilePath
If findInstance.Count <> 1 Then
Throw New ArgumentException("The instance of MyImages specified by the" & vbCrLf & _
"image file path is not in the collection.")
Else
Dispose(findInstance.First)
If removeFilePathAlso Then
My.Computer.FileSystem.DeleteFile(findInstance.First.SourceFilePath)
End If
miList.Remove(findInstance.First)
End If
End If
Catch ex As Exception
Throw
End Try
End Sub
Private Shared Sub Dispose(ByVal instance As MyImages)
If instance IsNot Nothing AndAlso instance._bmp IsNot Nothing Then
instance._bmp.Dispose()
instance._bmp = Nothing
End If
End Sub
End Class
When you look through that, look specifically at the "Remove" method and in particular, look at the order in which things are done. That's the critical part in this.
I tested it with a simple form:
Two buttons, a checkbox, and a picturebox. I also copied a small folder full of image files to my desktop since I'll be deleting a file from it. Following is the code for Form1:
Option Strict On
Option Explicit On
Option Infer Off
Imports System.IO.Path
Public Class Form1
Private miList As New List(Of MyImages)
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles MyBase.Load
Dim desktop As String = _
My.Computer.FileSystem.SpecialDirectories.Desktop
Dim imgFolder As String = _
Combine(desktop, "Images")
PictureBox1.BorderStyle = BorderStyle.FixedSingle
For Each imgFilePath As String In My.Computer.FileSystem.GetFiles(imgFolder)
MyImages.AddNew(miList, imgFilePath)
Next
btn_RemoveFirstImage.Enabled = False
CheckBox_RemoveSourcePath.Enabled = False
End Sub
Private Sub btn_ShowFirstImage_Click(sender As System.Object, _
e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles btn_ShowFirstImage.Click
Try
If miList.Count >= 1 Then
With PictureBox1
.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.Zoom
.Image = miList(0).Bmp
End With
btn_RemoveFirstImage.Enabled = True
CheckBox_RemoveSourcePath.Enabled = True
End If
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(String.Format("An exception was thrown:{0}{0}{1}", vbCrLf, ex.Message), _
"Exception", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Warning)
End Try
End Sub
Private Sub btn_RemoveFirstImage_Click(sender As System.Object, _
e As System.EventArgs) _
Handles btn_RemoveFirstImage.Click
Try
If miList.Count >= 1 Then
MyImages.Remove(miList, miList(0).SourceFilePath, CheckBox_RemoveSourcePath.Checked)
End If
PictureBox1.Image = Nothing
btn_RemoveFirstImage.Enabled = True
CheckBox_RemoveSourcePath.Enabled = True
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(String.Format("An exception was thrown:{0}{0}{1}", vbCrLf, ex.Message), _
"Exception", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Warning)
End Try
End Sub
End Class
Running it is straightforward:
Now when I click to show the first one:
A different image is shown because that first one no longer exists - either in the collection or in the folder.
Closing/disposing all references is the key and the order matters.
Something to consider the next time around. :)
Still lost in code, just at a little higher level.

Restore from the backup you had prior to installing Mavericks.
However, the upgrade should not have altered your partition scheme. Did your erase and format the drive prior to upgrading?

Why do I continue to receive notifications, even after I change my preferences?

why do I continue to receive notifications, even after I change my preferences? I had about 100 or so today. I switched all of my notification anwers to NO, as in , I don't want to receive any email from apple communities whatsoever. ??? Thanks.

You need to double check that you aren't subscribed to the community, not just to the question you asked. Go to the community that you are receiving the emails from and the same box called "Actions" will appear there just like it does next to the individual question. Make sure that you are not reciveing email notifications for that community. Probably the community where you asked your question. Typically that is what causes people to get 100's of email notifications. I think that this is not included in the tutorial so a lot of people miss it.
Hope that works for you.

ITunes cannot properly detect iPod even after uninstall and re-install

Recently I tried to sync my iPod nano (NOT touch) to my windows computer, but even after i completely uninstalled and reinstalled it says that it cannot properly detect it. I am running the most recent version of iTunes on Windows Technical Preview.

Did you uninstall iTunes and all other Apple related software using the instructions in this Apple support document?

I am unable to download itunes to my pc even after removing all itunes components

i am unable to download itunes to my pc even after i have removed all previous components of itunes

when i try to download itunes i get a message that says thanks for downloading itunes. But it does so instantly and there is no download for me to install
I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

Why won't itunes work with windows 8.1? i tunes can not locate my music.

Why won't windows 8.1 let itunes locate my music? I deleted and downloaded, still won't do it. But like majic after I installed windows 8.1 my computer had a XBOX music player appear, that found my 3200 songs and it was able to play the entire library no problem. Any ideas on how i get itunes to start working with windows 8.1?

Hi zachwill10,

Why won't itunes open in windows 8.1?

I have installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled iTunes on my Sony Vaio running windows 8.1. Any suggestions?

I was able to solve this problem by copying the QTMovieWin.dll from c:\program files (x86)\common files\apple\apple application support\ INTO c:\program files (x86)/iTunes

I Updated iTunes on my windows 7 and now it won't open. I re installed and repaired and tried it on a new account and still nothing

Bought a movie on my iPad and it won't play in iTunes on my windows Vista machine. Can't even download it?

Bought a movie using my iPad now I can't load it onto my Windows Vista machine to play it there or show it on my tv or use a projector to show it. Any ideas?

tried that...comes up telling me it needs to sync and that there isn't enough room.

HT5654 I need to update my iTunes but whenever I try it doesn't work, even after it restarts itself.

     I recently purchased an iPhone 5s, and when I plugged it into my macbook pro for the first time my iTunes said it could not connect to the phone because the iTunes needed to be updated to version 11.1 or later. I have 10.7 so I am a bit behind the ball.
     Anyway, when I try to install, a window pops up that says that the new version (11.1.3) is available, and I agree to "Download iTunes."A software updates comes up and it a window loads and checks for new software. Sounds good so far I think. But here's where I run into the problem I think.
     I remember updating iTunes to be a sort of long task full of agreeing to 100 different pop up windows, but this times it brings me to a window that says the software updates are ready, and I agree to Install and Restart. My computer then begind to restart, but doesn't shut off all the way. The screen turns blue and brings me to log into my account, it seems like I have just logged out. When I log in, nothing happens. I open iTunes and it is still version 10.7.
     I need to connnect my phone to the itunes on my computer but it refuses to work. I went through this process three times. Does anyone know what's wrong??
ps. for the record (not sure if this has anything to do with my CPU software not being up to date) my macbook is currently updated to os x 10.6.8.

My computer then begind to restart, but doesn't shut off all the way. The screen turns blue and brings me to log into my account, it seems like I have just logged out. When I log in, nothing happens. I open iTunes and it is still version 10.7.
Sounds like the computer is going through a STOP error (blue screen of death) when it tries to restart, and then reboots to the last known good configuration.
Do you have any better luck if you update using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website?

"iTunes detected an ipod that appears to be corrupted" even after update

I was hoping the latest version of iTunes would fix this, but I get this stupid message about a corrupt iPod all the time. If I quite iTunes and start iTunes over, it syncs normally. What a PITA.

Laura,
I would stop restoring your iPod unless you like doing it. If quitting then restarting iTunes works for you as (it does for me) then your iPod is fine. I wish I had an answer to why you and I and others are getting that bogus "corrupted" message and how to fix it for real but at least there is a workaround.

Running win 7 64 bit and itunes continues to stop working even after uninstalling repeatedly

I have windows 7 64 bit on my PC. Itunes continuously stops responding and closes whenever I open itunes. Whether it is to play music, plug in my iphone or ipod shuffle. I have uninstalled itunes too many times to count and reinstalled it. Every suggestion I have found online I have tried and I AM ABSOLUTELY FED UP. This prob makes my use of iphone for music impossible and a real bummer. PLEASE HELP

-Re: Win 7 64 bit and SB Titanium X-FI Drivers? Sorry - no go - uninstalled the Creative apps and drivers again, uninstalled the MS High Definition Audio Device however it won't let me remove it's driver files (assuming as it's a nati've driver). Every time I uninstall it it wants to restart, every time I restart it's back again immediately. If I uninstall and don't restart, or even if I do, there's NO change to the MS Windows Update results even when forcing a recheck. I'm really stuck.
If I try to li've with the MS HDAD driver with the Li've Titanium in the PC, if I plug anything into the front, to doesn't detect it's there - if I place anything in the back same again. If I remove the headphones it seems ready to accept something? . It's all back to front.
The only time I could get the MS HDAD driver to do anything was with the onboard sound device turned on and the Titanium X-FI removed. Please note that no driver other than the MS HDAD has been loaded on the system for the onboard sound and it is definately turned off at this stage and during testing the X-FI.
I'm going to have a play in Safe Mode, but currently all roads lead to fail.
